The iconic Number 36 Bus, which runs through Harewood village on its journey between Leeds and Harrogate is one of Yorkshire's oldest bus routes. This summer the route has its own artist in residence: photographer, video and performance artist Simon Warner.
The residency has been set up as part of Town and Country, a collaborative exhibition between PSL and Harewood House Trust on the outskirts of Leeds. The No36 bus literally links the two venues, travelling every twenty minutes taking passengers from the city into the country and back again.
Simon will be making new works both on and in the bus and at PSL throughout the exhibition.
The residency is supported by Transdev Harrogate & District who run the No36 Service.
